Lyrics
Just Another Trucker Passing By I should have filled my thermos at that truckstop I just passed I'm forty miles to Dallas and I'm fading fast I let my mind wander back . . just to help me stay awake Does Mary Lou McCarty know I love her to this day Some people called it puppy love but it's dogged me all these years I roll down my window . . wash away the tears I know she lives in Dallas and I know I'll never call It's a long way from lost everything to once we had it all . . . (Chorus) Eighteen wheels roll on past a love that's been long gone At least it's been long gone for one of us The city lights are shining bright . . on me and this big rig tonight While I'm drivin' past my one and only love Eighteen wheels roll out of sight, I whisper Mary Lou goodnight Just another trucker passing by Well I'll unload in Tulsa maybe go out on the town Then I'll circle back this way from that Tulsa turnaround This road goes on forever and forever never ends For now it's goodbye Dallas til I see you once again (Instrumental) (Chorus) Eighteen wheels roll on past a love that's been long gone At least it's been long gone for one of us The city lights are shining bright . . on me and this big rig tonight While I'm drivin' past my one and only love Eighteen wheels roll out of sight, I whisper Mary Lou goodnight Just another trucker passing by Just another trucker passing by
